The Best Women's Freeride Ski Boots for 2017/2018

The women's Freeride category's defining characteristic is the hike mode feature. All the ski boots in the women's Freeride Category offer releasable cuffs that allow the boots to hinge more freely forward and backward for the sake of a more natural stride while walking, hiking or skinning with the flip of a switch.

Many ski boots in the women's Freeride category also offer compatibility with lighter weight "tech" bindings. Any time a cuff-release feature and lighter weight plastics enter the picture, there comes a question as to what compromise is made to pure downhill performance; with the best women's Freeride boots, there isn't one.
